Analysis of THE GAME
mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)
You do what you need to do; you give your soul to what brought you to the game with the knowledge and wisdom of knowing things will never be the same. They always said that I could never be here and that I just do not fit the type that I will never belong. To go, fade away; your ride is over.
I never gave up I never gave in this life is my game I am meant to win. I have a choice to make that decision I have is evolve or go extinct, and I refuse to be that dinosaur that goes extinct only to be seen in some damn stuffy museum that you need to pay admission to get in.
I am back in the game that you can not see on Television or movie screens; this is my reality, even if others may consider it a foolish man's dream. There are other players like me on this team, and the game is ours to beat.
